    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Also, an important point about the 3D models is that the idle animation isn't all they have. They also have a bunch of animations for attacking, moving around, sleeping, entering battle, fainting, and so forth, so a lot of personality gets conveyed in those instead (whereas sprites really only...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    I wish they'd at least give regular Samurott Sharpness like the hisuian one.

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet: The Teal Mask

    Was it one of the people with the oni masks? Those guys do not screw around, goddamn.

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    Speaking of Earthquake, what starters do and don't get it seems really weird. All the fully evolved Gen I-IV starters get it, but then starting in Gen V only one per generation can learn it (Emboar, Chesnaught, Incineroar, Rillaboom, and Skeledirge). No Water starter has been able to learn EQ...

    iirc, those moves were in Black and White despite not actually being used until B2/W2, so they might have been localized without knowing what was intended to learn them.

    I assume Terapagos probably created paradox mons on its own in the past (perhaps as a defense mechanism), and the time machine was essentially Sada/Turo harnessing its power to make it do that on demand.

    "Worst Pokémon Ever"

    I don't think "lazy" is the right word, Toedscruel is the same way so it was clearly an intentional choice.

    Unpopular Opinions: Scarlet & Violet Edition

    The answer is, unsurprisingly, Exeggutor Island (also some other parts of Poni Island, but only in the original Sun/Moon)

    Honestly, Earth Power should be a lot more widespread than it is, considering the distribution Earthquake has. Same with with Nasty Plot wrt Swords Dance, really.

    Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - 18th Nov 2022! **OFFICIAL INFO ONLY**

    A bunch of Pokemon that have Sap Sipper (whose Japanese name is just "herbivorous", iirc) seem to have it for flavor reasons because they're based on ungulates, so some of them might get Cud Chew in place of that.

    Bounsweet lost Play Rough as an egg move.

    Also "the Cyndaquil line is not always on fire" was established way back when in the anime.

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    In particular, there was no real reason for Jump Kick to exist when High Jump Kick also exists and is learned by almost all the same Pokemon. It sucks for Dodrio, Stantler, and Sawsbuck (the only ones who just learn Jump Kick), I guess, but they're all Dexited anyway so maybe they'll get access...

    Pokémon Movepool Oddities & Explanations

    Also, a lot of the moves they cut were probably cut for being really bad, or being worse versions of other moves that stuck around, I think. Honestly, Hidden Power wasn't surprising. The move's mechanics are a disaster.
